Bible Institute 2012

Featured Speakers and Performers

Father Bob Hogan, BBD will be the Guest Speaker for the seminar, Mary, the Pathway to Living in the Power of the Holy Spirit. Father Bob will open our minds and hearts to the fullness of God's plan in bringing Mary and the Holy Spirit into the very center of our faith life.

He along with Father George Montague are directors of the newly founded religious community, Brothers of the Beloved Disciple, in San Antonio Texas. The mission of their community is "with Mary, to bring the full role of the Holy Spirit into the heart of the Church."

The early Church was profoundly charismatic. The Holy Spirit bestowed the full power of His gifts upon the early disciples enlivening and strengthening their faith. Along with Mary, they then had the endurance to form strong evangelizing communities. Father Bob will place before us the challenge of living out this dual vision of being dedicated to Mary and fashioned by the Holy Spirit.

It is with great sadness we inform our attendees of the sudden death of Fr. Daniel Havron O.F.M. who died Friday, April 27, 2012, at the age of 61 years. May his soul rest in peace. Father Dan was to have been our guest speaker for the seminar offered on July 27 and 28, Mary, the Model of Evangelism: "Do whatever He tells you."

That program will now be presented by DAN SCHNEIDER, a Catholic Lay Evangelist and apologist, known for his energetic and passionate presentations on the Roman Catholic faith and for his great love for the Blessed Virgin Mary. A former Cobra helicopter pilot, he had a dramatic experience of the Lord and is devoted to spreading the faith. With a Master's Degree in Theology from the Franciscan University of Steubenville, he uses his extensive knowledge, wit, and humor to draw the listener to Christ and His Church. Dan has been a guest speaker at the Bible Institute on several occasions.

Deacon Ralph Poyo,the founder of New
Evangelization Ministries of Steubenville Ohio, has experienced for himself the Lord's transforming power. He will be serving at the Institute in several ways on Thursday and Friday (July 26, 27). He will be the presider for adoration on Thursday evening and the presenter of the teen program on Friday, Authentic Discipleship. With his engaging and passionate style of preaching, the Lord continues to use him to reach and challenge listeners of all ages. He has a special gift of challenging young people to make a decision for Christ. He is passionate about reaching out in order to bring a new life in the Holy Spirit to those who are thirsty for more.
